Donald Trump's campaign staff has pulled him from all one-on-one interviews, citing "exhaustion" even as he continues to hold rallies and stage completely fake photo ops.
Trump's team of Project 2025 bullies thought it would be funny to mock Vice President Kamala Harris for her teenage job working at McDonald's. They've been claiming she lied about it because they couldn't find her employment records. McDonald's doesn't keep records going back that far, but the truth has never once mattered to Team Trump.
That's how Donny Photo Op got to pretend to work for fifteen whole minutes at a fully shuttered McDonald's in Feasterville, PA, where the other "employees" turned out to be Secret Service agents and the "surprised customers" were pre-screened Trump voters.
While Team Trump weakly bragged that Trump was "doing more work than Kamala Harris ever did," Twitter users quickly figured out the whole thing was staged and mocked every detail.
From the awkward apron to the unsanitary working conditions due to Trump refusing to wear a hairnet or gloves while pretending to work the fryer, everything about it was disingenuous.
Many people were comparing Trump in his apron to Michael Dukakis posing in a tank during his failed run for the White House in 1988 or Paul Ryan's staged photo op "washing dishes" at a soup kitchen where the pots and pans were already clean.
Underneath the cringe-worthy photos, false bravado, and juvenile mockery of the sitting Vice President is Trump's fear of losing the election and facing sentencing in New York on November 26th.
No comment from Trump's campaign staff, who claimed their candidate was "too exhausted" to do interviews but wasn't too tired to play Donald McDonald for a whole fifteen minutes.
